Xiao Mengyu had no Dharma Eye and could not see the threads.
So she could think that way.
But he could not.
Shen Ye steadied himself and said gravely:
"Let's pick up the pace and try to find a suitable deity statue sooner."
Not many people had come down yet.
He and Xiao Mengyu had plenty of time to find a suitable deity statue.
An early lead meant staying ahead at every step.
They still did not know what the Wailing Tide actually was. They had to hurry!
The horse's head had already vanished.
After a brief discussion, the two started the Ghostfire Motorcycle and flew in the opposite direction from Zhao Yibing.
The only thing they did not need to worry about was deity statues.
-Broken limbs from all sorts of statues littered the mountains.
The only difficulty was finding a suitable deity statue.
They asked five statues in a row. They either wanted human flesh, demanded a temple built of gold, or wanted several hundred followers.
"I finally understand that line in the mission," Xiao Mengyu said.
"What?" Shen Ye asked.
"The most important part of this mission is actually finding a 'suitable' deity statue," Xiao Mengyu said.
That gave Shen Ye an idea.
After a moment's thought, Shen Ye said, "That horse's head said something that caught my attention."
"You mean-" Xiao Mengyu remembered too.
"'The young lady beside you uses a sword. She'll definitely be to his liking. Just remain respectful in his presence,'" Shen Ye repeated.
The Ghostfire Motorcycle suddenly stopped in midair.
The two said in unison:
"Resonance!"
That was it!
A person had to find a deity statue compatible with them to gain its approval!
Xiao Mengyu had the "Sword Saint" evaluation tag.
One of its effects was-
Resonance with the Sword Artifact
